For 2024/25 the Forge WI have chosen to support Grace Food Bank

​

The Grace Food Bank is a community group covering the Sheffield 8 postcode area: Lowedges, Norton, Batemoor, Jordanthorpe and the surrounding areas. We provide food parcels to families / individuals who find themselves in short term financial crisis. Read more about Grace Food Bank here

​

The money we donate will be used to buy fresh produce for the cooking groups and meal packs. The committee has also decided that we will put a box out at meetings for people to donate goods each month for emergency supplies if they wish.

What is a Food Bank?

A food bank is a charity which collects donated food and then working with social services and other health care organisations, distributes the food to those in need. We need volunteers to help with admin, food collections, care teams and much more...
